Gold still
Had a long conversation with a close friend who also happens to be a college physics/chemical engineering professor. He reckons that a still made from gold would be as effective as copper. I think someone needs to try packing a column with gold wool and report back their experience.

Re: Gold still
you supply me with the gold and I'll test it.
I've heard you need at least 5 pound of gold to make it work, I'll PM you my address

Re: Gold still
I use 12mm glass marbles for packing now. But if you send me a bag full of that "spun gold", I'll test it for you...no questions asked. No deposit...no return.

Re: Gold still
I bet Mr. T's gold chains would make a good packing material. I pity the fool!

Even if this is true ... why would you pay the extra money for gold if it was not any better than copper?DBCFlash wrote:Had a long conversation with a close friend who also happens to be a college physics/chemical engineering professor.
